So, tried loved and bought a fairfax jump for supercob on saturday. He needs a new dressage as well though and I cant really afford a second new one, but I could save up and hang on if I need to. This would be bottom of the range if I buy new. Saddler says hed be fine in that model - they're adjustable, but obviously its tree shape as well
However, just up the road there is a monoflap fairfax for sale. Price is more than fair, its adjustable so in theory should fit assuming the trees are basically the same.
Supercob is not a totally flat backed barrel, he's also no razor fin sports horse. He's wide with a bit of witheramd a lot of shoulder.
So does anyone have much experience with fairfax, is the fit likely to be similar between models?
I'm super tempted with the mono but it's a lot of money to spend still if it's not right and I then have to sell. Seller is happy for me to try it - just need a gullet for that.
My other minor issue is that I'd like a 17 or 16.5 as I'm little but I can live with that if it fits the horse
